Thank you John E for your expertise. Yes, there are two small flat parallel springs within the barrel lug and opposing mechanisms within the sides of the frame. The ejector mechanism looks intact though obviously has been disabled due to a worn or broken part or intentional. There is a horizontal bar in the frame that engages the rear of barrel lug when attaching the barrels. It doesn't look terribly complicated. It would be nice if the ejectors worked properly but it's not a big issue for me when using the shotgun. I have functional ejector guns and though they increase the value of vintage side by sides they really aren't necessary at all. The right person could diagnose the problem and simply remedy it. I however, am not that person, I refuse to impersonate "Bubba".
